Thank you for your interest in the Career & College Promise Program (CCP) at
Mitchell Community College!
The CCP program is designed specifically for high school students who are
interested in starting their college career. Through this program, students may
choose a College Transfer pathway and/or a Career and Technical Education
pathway. Each of these programs allows for students to start early on college level
courses that lead to a college transfer degree or a career in technical education.
I encourage you to read through the information provided in this publication and
visit with our highly-trained staff to discover how easy it is for you to get a head
start on your college career in either the College Transfer tract or the Career and
Technical Education tract.
Each of these options will provide you with a challenging, meaningful educational
opportunity that will place you “ahead of the game” as you prepare for college or
to enter into the world of work.
Sincerely,
Mitchell Community College is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges
(SACSCOC) to award associate degrees, diplomas and certificates. Questions about the accreditation of Mitchell

Career & College Promise (CCP) allows high school students to get a jump-
start on earning college credits while still enrolled in high school. The best
part? Tuition is free! Eligible students may earn college transfer credits,
workforce credentials, or both!
College transfer pathways, designed for students to start working toward
transfer credit, lead to transfer degrees at Mitchell. These structured
pathways offer courses that, if successfully completed with a “C” or better,
will seamlessly transfer to any public university and many private colleges
and universities in the state.
Career and Technical Education Pathways are aligned with the high school
career clusters and allow students the opportunity to earn a workforce
credential before ever graduating from high school! Students acquire skills
in high-demand areas to fill a need in our community. These credentials will
help a student go directly into the workforce.
Program Benefits:
• Save money. In 2022-2023, a 3-semester hour credit (SHC) CCP course
at Mitchell cost $17.75 in student fees. The same course for non-CCP
students costs $280.75. On average, this same course would cost $1,700
at a public NC university.
• Save time. Students can earn both high school and college credit for
some courses.
• Get experience. Students are introduced to college while still living at
home, providing an opportunity for guidance and growth
I hope you make the choice to join the Mitchell family through the Career &
College Promise program. Should you have any questions, please give me a
call at (704) 978-1323 or visit us online at mitchellcc.edu/ccp.
Sincerely,
Hannah M. Scott
Career & College Promise Coordinator

Students will self-register for courses during specific registration windows.

Fee Payment
Tuition is free, but students are responsible for paying their student fees. In year’s
past, Iredell-Statesville and Mooresville Graded Schools have paid fees for their
students. Check with the CCP contact at your school to see if your school system
will be paying your fees. Fees that are not paid by deadlines will result in the
student being removed from the class.
